Was this a good game 20 years ago? Most likely. Is this game worths to buy and play in 2023? No, not really. For start, you need to make a few preparations to make it work, like changing your graphic card settings so you don't get stuck in place after every battle, or use 3rd party tools like Flawless Widescreen to reach a non-distorted resolution. After these two you only need to deal with the frequent crashes both ingame and during launch (I dropped the game when I could only start it normally after 8 tries, jut so it crash when I wanted to save the game). But technical issues aside (you can run it on an old PC or emulator with no issues after all), I still couldn't recommend the game. Objective reasons: the gameplay itself is really outdated. It uses an RPG ruleset similar to D&D 3rd edition, and the battles are basicallyclick on the enemy to attack, then sit and watch until you've rolled enough succes on the dice for it to die. Sometimes use medkits, shields, jedi powers. The conrols between are clunky, like you need to be at a precise distance and angle with the camera to see the lootable containers/remains or diffuse mines. The environment is really barren and ugly, this was very common in early 3D games but ages like milk. Subjective reasons: people say that the game gets better after leaving Taris. For me it was quite the opposite: Taris had interesing plotlines, well-designed environments, and was a true Star Wars setting. After Taris you are forced (pun intended) to turn into a Jedi which is the most boring part of the whole SW universe, but here its even more lacklusting: you need to hit a big wold with horns 43 times with a lightsaber to defeat it. I felt weaker after getting my lightsaber and jedi training than being a simple soldier with 2 vibroblades or blasters. There are really good parts in the game, the side stories and quests are interesting, I loved the Taris quests and setting, but constantly felt bored after that. Could use a remake.
